Jumpers for Goalposts in Hitchin is a low‑pressure, community drop‑in that brings men together to watch Premier League football in a calm, friendly setting. Run by local organiser Katie Wilson and held at Osinsky’s in Hitchin, sessions are informal: there’s no sign‑up, no therapy agenda and no expectation to talk. The match provides structure while companionship and light conversation happen naturally, making it easy for anyone to pop in, stay as long as they like, and feel part of a welcoming group.
The group’s ethos is companionship over counselling — a safe, respectful space designed to lower barriers for men who might avoid traditional support services. Attendance is flexible and inclusive, welcoming trans people who feel the space suits them, and organisers prioritise gentle boundaries and emotional safety rather than structured interventions. For many members, the simple combination of watching a familiar activity together and having people nearby creates an accessible route to connection and informal support.
